Thanks Rick, and thanks for the pointers, I will definitely be trying that out. I'm always looking for easier ways to do things.

Thanks Kevin. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the astro mod was the best thing I could have done for my images. I did it myself so cost nothing apart from time and as you say the extra Ha it picks up is well worth it.

Thank you again Dunk for the kind words. I am actually not 100% happy with it, it looks a little too smooth to my eye. I might have another play down the track (after I get over the headache of the first round ), and see if I can make it look a bit more natural.
